[ # ] Painting Genius - Totally Useless or Useful?
September 29th, 2007 under Useless rants, Useless news, Useless opinions, Totally Useless

Today I read an article on yahoo about a painter that made me gasp, and I mean it. Not only is his way of art kind of weird, but he is very, very talented, and like a wizard with his brushes.
He produced some weird paintings however, and there are many people, and critiques calling him crazy too. From his statements you could see how little he cares about the critiques, and the crazy name calling. See this video here of the portrait made with his blood.

If someone asked me would I do something like it, I’d reply - most probably not. And even if I was as talented as he is, I would have chosen some real colors instead of my own blood, but yeah, it was his statement after all :)

And here is the article that I was telling you about, and there is yet another video for you to see ;)

Very talented, like you if I was that talented , would have used paint, I faint at the site of blood, but using blood worked for him, got his name out.

I guess that was a great painting and he’s a great talent, and he really owns the art since he used his own blood to paint the portrait. But personally i think I won’t get to do something like that even if I were as good as him. :) ) I happened to be anemic and losing more blood would kill before the art is half done. But over-all it think this guy deserves a thumbs up!

Thank you Bob and pariuskat for the comments :) And I completely agree with both of you about the blood drwaing. It would have been better if blood of the N.Korean guy he painted would have been used ;) hehehe
